A bit less Gymkhana and a bit more Scandinavian flicks. A bit less X Games and a bit more WRC.

Mads is insane, simple as that. Or as we'd say in Norway "klin hakke gal".

...and he looks like as if he was a carbon copy of James Hunt.

If there were ever a Winter Olympics for Cars, man, the friggen Scandinavians would just wtfpwn everybody for years and years, especially the Finns.

Driving in a ski slope. This is how you do it.

Finland is not in Scandinavia though. And I think we should be happy about that, Finnish Sisu AND Scandinavian insanity would just be way over the top.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Great Vid! but...s'a pretty big insult to Mads. In so many words I am far more content about Paris owning an LFA than I am about Mr Moneybags co opting the sport so he can promote himself and his (now) cheap products because rally is s0'extreeeeme an rebellious like Skateboarding! And it's not about how talented he is. I would be monumentally happier if Oprah decided to rally a pastel tangerine Rolls Royce with fucking O Magazine vinyl wrap because I bet I wouldn't have to deal with asshats in Subaru's coming into my lane around a blind turn then seeing a bigass O vinyl sticker taking up most of the rear window.

I've always fantasied about rallycross being part of the Winter X Games. I'm sure we'd get a couple Finnish and Scandinavian drivers that would come over and clean house racing on snow.

on one hand I agree with you, Mads is far more accomplished WRC driver..
but Ken has greatly improved the profile of rallying especially so in the US.

You'd have asshats in Subaru's regardless of Ken Block though, they've been around a lot longer than Kenny has been making videos.
